I ought to go to bed shortly too. Have to be up at half 5 to get myself to the ExCel for about 8:15 in the morning. The show opens to the public at half nine, so that'll give me enough time for set-up and breakfast. Fortunately it's a relatively straightforward drive except for the last couple of miles.

I've just got a six pack (of gingerbread from the gingerbread shop in Grasmere).

It's a proper one. Came on bad this morning, uncontrollable shaking. Only had paracetamol in but the missus has been out for ibuprofen so can top up every two hours. Not been out of bed most of the day. Got cocodamol to take at bed time (5 hours after last paracetamol).

More annoyed as I had stuff to do today.

Well that didn't work out, cost me money instead of saving it. A couple of weeks ago I swapped phone providers from EE to Plusnet, same network but a little cheaper, but found I had problems with no mobile data, lost it for a day then a few days later lost it permanently, the phone is a dual sim unlocked Samsung, I put in the EE sim out of my spare phone and it worked flawlessly, tweaking the settings didn't help and a second plusnet sim also has the same problem, so I've killed the plusnet account and got my PAC number. I'm now back on EE on a plan that has half the data allowance a month for the same money a month that I was paying to start off with.

We took my M in L for a cream tea today, which she enjoyed. It was to get her out of the house and to cheer her up after having an operation postponed yet again. The scones were large, filling, fruity, warm and delicious. The cream was gooey and plentiful. But the jam was non-descript and too chilled for my liking. I made one a la Devonshire ( cream first then the jam) and the other a la the Cornish way( jam first then the cream).

I have had a lovely day. Quick shop this morning, then sorted and tidied my sewing room getting rid of all my old bits of fabric I am never going to use. I have then spent the evening sewing and doing some crochet while watching trashy tv. A fab fab day.
